18SSD a present for my brother

[jmenace 0]

ok im looking to get a present for my brother he wants a sub thats big so i think im gonna go with the 18

he has a 2002 galant and is willing to give up his hole trunk to fit on in there he has a phoenix gold 15.1 says 1000rms at 2 ohms

would this be ok to put on a 18SSD without any of the options added

So long as he's careful he should be fine with that amount of power...

However you may want to entertain the flatwire coil option, that would definitely keep him in the clear.

Are you sure there is enough room to get a box as big as the SSD18 requires in and out of a trunk?

Thanks

more then likely or i might just get the 15 i know that i can get that in and out

i see that u reccomend 6 or more cuft but would it work in anything less?

It will "work" but not optimally and youd be better stepping down to a 15" at that point.

Even at 5 cuft tuned to 33Hz itll peak in the 40-60 range and not be quite as loud down low... yes it works, but not a flat response.
